Pleurothallis caucensis

An elegant epiphyte from the Andean cloud forests, producing erect stems with medium-sized flowers in a warm amber-orange tone. The rounded hooded dorsal sepal, free lateral sepals with sharp tips, and a bold bright yellow labelo at the center create a vivid, ornamental contrast that makes this species immediately eye-catching.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the foliage.
• Temperature: 50–68°F (10–20°C); a Cool grower that performs best with stable cool conditions and good air movement. Minimum 45°F (7°C).
• Humidity: 70–90%; grow in a small pot or mount with a fine open mix to maintain moisture around the roots while ensuring good airflow.
• Watering: Water regularly to keep roots evenly moist; avoid prolonged dryness between waterings.

Additional Notes
